"Yah Mo B There" is a contemporary R&B song, recorded as a duet by American singers James Ingram and Michael McDonald. It was written by Ingram, McDonald, Rod Temperton and producer Quincy Jones. The song originally appeared on Ingram's 1983 album, It's Your Night, via the Jones Qwest Records label. It was released as a single in late 1983, peaking in 1984 at No. 19 on the U.S. chart and No. 44 on the UK Singles Chart. A remixed version by John Benitez reached No. 12 in the UK, during the spring of 1985. It has subsequently appeared on several of Ingram's and McDonald's greatest hits albums, as well as various 1980s compilation albums. The performance earned the duo a 1985 Grammy Award for Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals. It was one of a series of very successful duets involving Ingram.
